Soundy

Hey @rrhoover, thanks for your feedback. Yeah, definitely something to consider on our roadmap. This is a first iteration of a bigger redesign. In fact, on mobile it’s even more difficult to scan quickly through sounds (which, btw, we are already working on). If you upload sounds manually (not through youtube) it’s possible to upload an image. However, we should probably be able to choose a frame from the youtube video, making these images more meaningful so that our dashboard could look more like a library of sounds with proper covers. But always open to better suggestions. So, something to improve definitely! https://www.soundy.top/sounds/625

@jpgbarbosa @rrhoover Yea, the image overlaid on the record itself would be cool.. :-)

@grmmph @rrhoover Good point indeed. Although it might be unlikely that we can include it on our short roadmap, it's something great to think about for medium term. In fact (warning: shameless promotion ahead) part of our team has some nice skills on machine learning (unplugg was hunted =D https://www.producthunt.com/post...) and we even started tOSTa app (http://tosta.herokuapp.com/ not open yet sadly) during an hackathon which is pretty much the reverse of your idea - getting a soundtrack from images/instagram. So, tl;dr yup, we are almost on the same page, great idea to consider, thanks!

@tweetyunus nice feedback! Definitely! That's something that we need to discuss for our roadmap. Not only we need to make it more visual with covers for each sound as I mentioned before, but also, making it available for other integrations like (for example) having an API. Also, you're 100% right. It will get boring soon. Sounds are great but users need something to see, something to interact with and feed the loop so that we can keep having new sounds, new users and new ways to use Soundy. Thanks!

@ryanamurphy yup, agree! Just commented it above. Need to save some time and implement it =) Still, it will be a "workaround" since Slack only supports some players like Spotify and SoundClound. Thanks for the feedback

@ryanamurphy Anyone else remember the days of Campfire chat and playing obnoxious soundbites in a channel 😂

@rohillion, bingo! We already contacted Slack team asking information about that but only one or two sound players are allowed. So, we are about to start a "workaround" using SoundCloud to allow it temporarily. Internally we use a slash command but we can't play it immediately without opening a new tab which is annoying... https://www.soundy.top/sounds/473

@jpgbarbosa the SoundCloud work around sounds good for me!

@einkoenig Glad to hear that! Yes please! And also, feel free to give feedback or any suggestion. https://www.soundy.top/sounds/681 Thanks!

@taha_tweets totally get you. We all have been there I guess =) Thanks, we appreciate for your feedback!
